I had a neighbor who somehow turned his stock wheels into $2000 wheels overnight. Of course on that same morning, some chap woke up with his $2000 wheels turned into wheel hubs.
It's nice when I can watch a video and know this person is NOT an idiot.... thank you for not wasting our time with nonsense. Just the facts. Great job. Much needed info...!!
One thing that wasn’t shown or mentioned is that if you use a design like the arrowhead (that has a point on one side) you can’t make all four wheels the same. Two of the wheels need to have the points go in one direction, the other two wheels in the other direction. If you don’t, then the two wheels one one side of the car will have the points pointing towards the front and the other side will have them pointing towards the rear. Notice the left side of the car wasn’t shown.
Tomaszenko, I took a look at the Audi rotors and you are correct. They are similar, and all four the same. I guess it’s just personal preference as to how one wants them to look on the car. For me, I prefer symmetry. Could be because I’m a Virgo? 🤪
That is the same problem that rims have on some cars, that they face backwards at one side, just some details that irritate me. Just check out the new electrical Audi , it strange the designers don’t think about it.
You are a champion! 😲 No need to even clean the rims (while they are removed 😑😑) And no need to change the tires either, which have been dead for 4 years ... You have redone my evening😂😭😭🤣🤣
Great content for the DIY'er who doesn't have a Grand or Two to spend on their rims. Really prefer to put the hard cash into the bits that matter most like the brakes, drivetrain, or suspension where it really matters most. Liked that you stuck to a basic design and didn't lose sight of the purpose. Thanks again. Very best wishes.
You make it look so easy mate, I’ve scuffed my wheels and was going to get them refurbished. Now I’m going to try and do them myself , thanks for the videos and I’m going to learn by watching you. PS I also want to by a van and give it a go at turning it into a Camper, wish me luck everyone😊😎
Fishing line or dental floss will help when it comes to removing those fragile emblems on the center caps. Just floss it between the emblem and whatever it's attached to. A heat gun (blow-dryer can be used as well) will make the task even easier, as it will soften up the adhesive.
I hate youtube because it looks like this took you 10 minutes and I really want to do it now, but I know for a fact it's going to take me atleast 6 hrs the first day, and 3 hours the next day 😂 my attention to detail exceeds my patience and steadiness when it comes to painting lol
problem you have is that you are too slow, just look how fast his working. he works so fast that even camera does not always catch him, thus the jumping.
Captain here. To eliminate paint creep when applying your second color, spray the first color over the edges of the masked area, let it tack up and then spray your second color. The first color will creep under and simply make a wetsandable spot that is completely invisible when finished and leave you with a sharp transition.
Just a quick tip to make this process easier ,if the tyres are good and balanced or if you have new ones fitted and balanced ,let the air out and have a tyre shop break the outside bead then get a big piece of cardboard or corflu (plastic cardboard},place a tyre of the same size as on your rims draw a circle on the cardboard from the inside of the tyre cut a slit in the cardboard so it can be slid between the tyre beads and rim as the outside beads where pushed back by the tyre shop this eliminates the need to mask the rim and allows paint to go around the edge of the rim and when they are dry you just pump up the tyre and the bead will pop back on and as the rear bead was not broken the tyre has not moved so the balance is still good and your wheels are ready to go on the car.
These look amazing my man! YES you have inspired me to go ahead and give it a go, I have a black TT with stand rims on, but I'm going to spray them like you have! they look stunning!
I think it looks great, and your attention to detail was spot on. Most will not buff and polish the clear coat, just one more step you took for a great result imo.
wow fantastic as i have four sets of rims that are in need of this process.... now i know how to start it :) Very clear and appropriately edited with good speed to follow steps.
Planned to perfection. Kept your audience on the edge of their seats knowing they were going to think ‘what the heck is he doing’ ... then BAM! Awesome end result! Bravo!!!
Very inspirational bro I have a 1997 Toyota 4Runner with the stock wheels on it going to use your method to see how it goes I want them to look nice but at the same time not too loud thank you again be blessed
Great idea, Didn't think to 2 tone wheels I'm repainting. Just search the most popular wheels for my truck. Going to mimic some expensive suckers. Go with dark grey on the natural contour of spokes, black barrels and rim. Thanks!
Yep, you've inspired me. Gonna do my wheels black, with a white South Sydney Rugby League "Rabbitohs" emblem on each spoke. Then two fine-line tapes around the rim of red and green. (I'll have to put on lock-nuts so no one will knock them off😁)
At first I thought what you think your doing with black, I see now that you shared this I'm now looking at my infiniti wheels perhaps about the same color with a different style. Thanks buddy for a great idea
Oh hell no he just made some badassszzzsss wheel's . I so got try this now that's just cool. Thanks for showing us this big fan man now . Love your youtube channel .
Wow! Huge difference for the better. I can't tell you how many wheels I've had curbrashed and ended up letting them go for cheap. People buying used rims will mercilessly beat you down in price. (There are no wheel repair shops around here.) A guy like you would have made several hundred profit off my blemished wheels. Good job!
I have a 2001 Dodge RAM 1500 with a set of stock wheels that I'm going to paint the wheel flat black, the 3 spokes metallic bronze, and the hubs Gloss black. The wheels need some extra care. I'm also adding large (14"x14") USMC EGA emblems to the doors, a large (6"x6") RAM emblem on the tailgate, a custom wing on the roof, and a Duraflex® - Hellcat Style Fiberglass Hood painted flat black. I'm painting the whole truck gloss black.
You did a great job on those rims, they look beautiful on the car. I need to do mine but don't know when that will be, lol. Great video and thank you for sharing.
Got the wheels to do on my Jaguar S Type and I was going to do them just one colour , but now thanks to you I think I’ll experiment . Great inspiration 👍🍀🙏

I see, trying to highjack his video.......
Lmfao
Looks great, I'm trying to feel comfortable to tackle my own wheels.
how long does this paint normally last? is it ok for use in winter/snow?
“Mum I want Audi Rotas”
“We have them at home son”
*audi rotas at home*
I’m not the only one that thought this 😂
I didn't know that McGregor was so skilled when comes to painting rusty wheels lol
You know it brother
i don't hear it
Not rusty they're aluminum. It doesn't rust
Clearly this is Colin Farrell
Alloys n rust 🤔

when you finished the wheels I thought that the car would look horrible with them, but when you put them in the car it looked awesome! Great job
Until you get within 6 feet of the car that is.
Também achei isso bruno
I thought the design would be naff at first but they actually look proper smart 👍
Same as what I thought
they’re pretty much ttrs alloys
I didn’t like the design when you were showing the wheels off the car but once you put them on I honestly changed my mind
Same here, such a big difference when they are on the car.
I still don't like the design lol. Either way, it looks loads better than it did before. Great video! 👍

Sounds like he should be doing this with a pint in his hand!
😂😂😂😂
Of coarse he does, thats the only way to do it!
Point
how do you know there is not one at arm's length? More than one, lines might get wonky.
@@patrickhayes3099 you have a really good point there!
You deserve some sort of recognition for being the FIRST out of dozens of videos I've watched on painting wheels that mentions a respirator. 👍

Meaning what? You thought I was stating the obvious?
I once turned a $75 set of wheels into a $42.50 set of wheels....
Note: I am a poor Craigslist negotiator.
😲😂😂😂
This shit cracked me up
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Just painted my neighbors wheels as a thank you for all the Cadillac converters iv stolen from him over the years! Thanks for the idea
There is no comparison Mate, The new ones are much nicer, what a cracken job 👍
Had my doubts at first with that design, then I saw it on the car. Banging job man!
You are a champion! 😲
No need to even clean the rims (while they are removed 😑😑) And no need to change the tires either, which have been dead for 4 years ... You have redone my evening😂😭😭🤣🤣

Not a fan of black rims but this matches. Looks like the tire version of the grill, black with silver. Looks real nice.

Wow absolutely beautiful I'm a painter I do guitars I'm gonna do my wheels now thanks love it

Bro, those rims look wickeddddd. I honestly didn't think it would look so good. I was like woooooohhhhh
I have done that as well on a 2020 Camry XSE. Painted them completely black and the calipers red. Upgraded the appearance 1000%
As a 15 year old that’s learning bodywork. This was really helpful. ❗️⭕️
Great job there. Looks real good. Thanks for the how to. Now its time to go buy a set and try it out myself.

Good points, i think i pointed this out in another of my videos 👍
Amazing work! Spray can job I've ever seen! Better than a lot of people with professional equipment too... Lol!
I love your creativity! Thank you for sharing your skills to the world sir.
Excellent design and execution. By far, the best wheel refurbish I've seen. Thanks for your content.....made me a subscriber.

All the proper wheel repair guys are watching this like "nooooooooo!"
Not crazy about the design, but still an improvement over the other wheels.
Absolutely brilliant. Audi should be ashamed they don't offer something like those from factory! They look nearly OEM!
Looks well considering the price. Much better than the casters on before.
These look amazing my man! YES you have inspired me to go ahead and give it a go, I have a black TT with stand rims on, but I'm going to spray them like you have! they look stunning!
My 2000 TT is silver..I have to bough it out it would look so nice! And of course make it look like its attending a funeral

True title: Turning a $50 set of wheels into a $500 set of wheels *using 200 worth of materials*

And it would have cost you $0.00 to not say anything ignorant, yet... here we are! It won't even take 200 to do that same job 3x.

Finally a good video from this channel, even tho these closely resemble stock audi rims this is still a good mod
Would have loved to see those wheels spinning on the road
Just press pause & spin your phone. Problem solved.... (I'll be right here if you need any more lifehacks.)
That was very cool. Made the car look way better.
Never skip the primer, only a fool would do that. Great video.
They’re supposed to resemble the Audi TT Rs wheels.
Or just buy Audi Rotors... :D
You give a lot of inspiration to mundane people like myself to get up and do cool stuff. THANK YOU
At first I wasnt sure about the wheels, but once they where on the car, they looked really good.

bloody awesome the design really suited the car
Can everyone stop painting their wheels black. They're manky.
No
It has its place. Let others do it so our bronze and gold wheels look better ;)
